Bug#477631: gnome-power-manager: g-p-m keeps resetting brightness

[graziano]

Package: gnome-power-manager
Version: 2.22.1-1
Severity: normal


Hello there,

I have g-p-m that stubbornly keeps resetting the brightness on my screen.
I do set it manually to a value (lower than max becasue is evening for
example) and g-p-m after while resets it to max (or to whatever is set in
the preferences). I don't have the dim while idle checkbox set.

thanks for the good job packaging it!
